Abstract

We sequenced a carbapenem-resistant Shewanella putrefaciens isolate cultured from the sink handle of a Pakistan hospital room. Assembly annotation indicates that the isolate has a chromosomal bla_OXA-436 carbapenemase and a plasmid-borne bla_NDM-1 gene. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a Shewanella species harboring bla_NDM.
